💡 Професійні поради
- ✓The quality of kvass significantly impacts the soup's flavor. Use a good quality, unsweetened rye kvass.
- ✓If you don't have kvass, a combination of water and a little bit of sauerkraut brine, plus a touch of vinegar or lemon juice, can be used as a substitute, though the flavor will differ.
- ✓For a vegetarian version, omit the pork and use vegetable broth instead of water, and consider adding smoked tofu or mushrooms for depth.
